AmigaDOS is a capable and flexible operating system that provides features not found in other personal computers. But after you become familiar with the various commands and learn some of the power they provide, you'll eventually come up against the system's weaknesses. Even with all the help given by the numerous public domain programs written to fill the gaps, you'll soon find that you may need to write a program to do seemingly simple tasks. For most Amiga owners, this means using AmigaBASIC, but because of the overhead AmigaBASIC requires, this is rarely an acceptable alternative. Having spent much of my time writing and using command scripts in the V AXNMS and ill\'IX environments, I naturally wanted the same power and flexibility on the Amiga. AmigaDOS comes so close it's frustrating. Seemingly simple tasks are impossible to do. I've been hoping that someone would come up with a suitable improvement without sacrificing some of the excellent features available in AmigaDOS.
